When employees take the time to recognize their colleagues, they promote a pleasant work environment, foster links between each other, and work together towards the same objectives. Workplace solidarity has a strong impact on performance.

WHAT MOTIVATES EMPLOYEES?

This question was asked by numerous firms in 2014. Each of them noted that relationships with colleagues and with managers are on top of the list! Randstad revealed that 43% of people would be willing to stay in a position that doesn’t suit them for their colleagues.
